Fair Haven 2-11 (Tourney on the 13th)

[Finders Keepers]

Hit the pond today for the first time and had a steady pick all morning on pike. Ended at 11am and went 6 for 11, all small between 2 and 4 lbs. The perch were non-existant - didn't even have a nibble. Will be fishing the Fair Haven Tourney on Saturday and will probably fish Blind Sodus. Anyone else fishing this tourney?

[Popeye]

I'll be there fishing it. Probably be on the bay.

[Finders Keepers]

Well, at least there are two of us in the tourney and I won't be fishing against myself! Have you had much luck on the bay this year? I've been targeting Sodus all season and doing well over there. Good luck to you tomorrow and I will see you at weigh in!!

[whiteknuckler]

Damn, I wish I knew sooner. I still have been targeting the 300fow...

SCREWY LOUIE'S PHOTOS and REPORTS

Fishing has been spotty. Looking for trout and salmon in about 100 - 300 feet of water.

Pan fishing has been doing well.

[Popeye]

Yea it's time for an update. Fishing was real slow for us. Several missed bites. Only iced a couple of small perch.

[Finders Keepers]

For some reason, I have never done well on Fair Haven. Maybe it's because I don't know the bay well enough, or it's just because there just aren't that many pike in there. All I know, is that Sodus has out-performed Fair Haven by leaps and bounds as long as I can remember. Having said that, I do like the challenge!

[GAMBLER]

Finders Keepers,

Blind Sodus has been really slow according to the reports. The channel was closed off early this fall. Not many perch in tha bay this year. A few pike have been caught here and there.

[Finders Keepers]

Yeah, that's what I heard too. That was the main reason I targeted the other waters for the tourney.
